Elizabeth Hasselbeck's comments on Erin Andrews, concerning her attire on Dancing With The Stars, have not endeared the oft-maligned “View” co-host to many. Hasselbeck made some comments to the effect that Andrews’ stalker wouldn’t have needed to invade her privacy if he could have just waited to see her outfits. Saying these remarks were a bit insensitive is an understatement. It will definitely take more than short term loans to pay for the truckload of mouthwash needed to cure this foot within the mouth taste.
Elizabeth Hasselbeck and her Erin Andrews remarks
May fourth, which was a Tuesday, Elizabeth Hasselbeck said on the View that Erin Andrews’ “Dancing with the Stars” outfits were all too revealing. Rather than just saying something like "her outfits are a little skimpy" and then moving on, she decided that it is acceptable to joke about the Erin Andrews peephole video event and while every person watched in horror:
“as inexcusable as it was for that guy to go in and try to peep on her in her hotel room … I mean, in some way if I’m him, I’m like ‘Man! I could’ve just waited 12 weeks and seen this,’ just a little bit less, without the prison time!”
(This was from the Huffington Post). It would appear that no matter how rich a person gets, you just can’t buy common sense, or class for that matter. Ironically, those who are rich forget to display it often.
Erin Andrews doesn't seem amused
In response to Elizabeth Hasselbeck, Erin Andrews declared her remarks a “slap within the face to victims of stalking and sexual predators” after she appeared on Dancing with the Stars.
Elizabeth Hasselbeck apologizes
Elizabeth Hasselbeck apologized for her remarks on Wednesday May 5. She even teared up during her apology. She doesn't really seem sorry and individuals believe she only is apparently sorry because she is in trouble.
Where should the line get drawn?
The fallout of Elizabeth Hasselbeck's Erin Andrews remarks will run its course and could be forgotten soon. I guess all that matters is she put her foot in her mouth and realized she had done so. Although nobody should feel like they can't say what they think, some things go a little too far.
